Well I just had my MAF replaced on mine in march so I think we'll just use that one. I will need to replace the exhaust manifold and engine mounts according to him. New manifold is $400 and a used one is $100. Also he said new motor mounts are $150 each (ouch) but from reading your post it's better to have them done now then later. I thought I'll need my ECU to be remapped for the E55 engine. Whats AFR? I'm heading home tonight, and hopefully I can pick it up tomorrow!
AFR means Air Fuel Ratio.You tell them to record it when your getting your car dynoed.Just get the car dynoed first b4 you consider getting it remapped.The dyno sheet will show the AFR if you tell them to include it.Scan it and I can let you know if your ECU needs remapping.Steve's car ran like a monster with the C43 ECU programming.His car was literally running right next to mine.We(Jeffrey and myself) are suspecting that the files(98-2k C43 and E55) AMG's are the same other than the ABS/ESP programming.
